  1. If anyone fancies this then a courier will do it for 15ish. It does not need to be packed. It is a flight case. The courier will take it as a challenge. And the flight case will win.
  2. I HAVE BEEN QUOTED BY ASHDOWN. I HAVE ALSO BEEN QUOTED BY JAMES DEMETER ON TB. The rest of you can pack up and go home now. I have won.
  3. I was listening to a Podcast with Guy Pratt who mentioned that these look like this cos Mr Ashdown loves Wem stuff and did them as a bit of an homage.

    Compressors

    Setting a compressor to make your bass sound fabulous is a tricky business. This is why I like the Spectracomp so much. Someone who knows how has actually done all that tedious stuff and it just works for me. I make no apology for my technical ineptitude. I just don't get it. But I do get great compressionish stuff with the TC.
  5. Shipping to the Netherlands is my favourite thing! It is as new. I will do loads of pics in a moment.
  6. Sorry, I am letting my grief derail your thread. Yours also looks very tasty!
  7. The aesthetics were very right. As far as I am concerned, if the aesthetic is that good then the design has to be there or thereabouts. I still kick myself for deciding 2 hours to late. As I said, if you are out there, do the right thing and sell it to me. The seller took the pics down. I only have one in a PM. Do I need to get out more?
  8. There was an MPU headless on here last year which I ummed and ahed about for too long and missed it. If whoever bought it is reading this thread then PLEASE sell it to me.
  9. I might have mentioned that I have to try them all. Here is another. It is an API (Neve kind of stuff, but American) bass preamp. It has 3 bands of Eq (switchable) and 6 position Compressor (switchable). It has a line out and a balanced DI out. It is full of transformers (for the TOOOOONE) and is built like a tank. It has variable gain and output volume. It is a lovely piece of kit and very well thought out. Just to demonstrate my maturity I am resisting any robot/disguise jokes. Quite fancy it you know you do.
  10. Your scale, but tuned at bass pitch - hmmmmmm..............
  11. It is just as well that I do not live anywhere near you.
  12. Of course I could just buy the 2nd hand one on here. Actually, I could not.
  13. I have a Korean MTD which cost me £180 2nd hand many years ago. It has my favourite neck, is super light and just resonates in a way I REALLY like. However, the pickups are......lacking. So plumbing something Smithesque in would be fun.
  14. Just for reference, I have been doing my research and have emailed Armstrong Pickups cos internet lore has it that they make the originals
  15. Yes please. PM me your prefered payment method. Thanks
  16. Thanks to this video I fancy a Ken Smith. At £5K from BD that is not going to happen anytime soon (as in at all before I die). Obviously there are all sorts of neck through stuff going on and build quality yadda yadda yadda. However, I have a bass I would happily plumb a couple of Smith Humbuckers into just for the craic. Do such a thing exist for bass bodgers like me to buy aftermarket or does anyone sell/wind Smith-alikes? I have found this but no prices http://www.kensmithbasses.com/parts-accessories/soapbar-pickups/ TIA
